Notes
This research aims to study the group of glazed tiles for the mihrab of the Prince Muhammad Kashif Bey Zada Mosque in the city of Assiut. These tiles contained a group of diverse decorations that expressed the periods and stages of the development of Ottoman ceramics in Egypt and Turkey, and represented them well. They were an echo and reflection of the development and tracking of the stages of these decorations. Accordingly, analytical studies and comparative artistic studies came to research as an attempt to date these tiles based on the decorations contained on them to determine the places and history of their manufacture. Especially since they had not been studied or the decorations of these tiles had been studied before, I chose to divide the research into two main parts: the first is concerned with the descriptive study of the levels of the mihrab tiles and the extent of the artist’s success in designing and arranging them with the area of the mihrab, and the second is the analytical study, which is specialized in analyzing the decorations contained and their types, and deducing the aesthetic values contained in the ceramic tiles of the mihrab. It is also concerned with the history of those tiles and comparing them with similar tiles. Decorated for local niches as well as preserved in international museums.
